#monkey d luffy redesign

[lesbikyuu]

hes so fun to draw

[wtfforged]

my campaign hiatus has gone on for too long so to cope ive combined my interests at their maximum potency and had some dnd-strawhats thoughts

thoughts in depth under read more... :)!

this is SO self indulgent. their designs literally did not change. but i am a firm believer that dnd doesnt have to be european high fantasy. and also one piece literally IS fantasy. no changes are necessary to fit into dnd. ive already imagined plenty of campaign/oneshot ideas inspired by one piece. so this was basically just an exercise of trying to replicate their canon abilities in dnd 5e as much as possible without totally homebrewing everything. well. aside from luffy. you just cant take away or change his stretching.

LUFFY: (human monk. drunken master subclass. outlander)

the only plain human of the crew to balance out with the fact that he still has rubber powers. obviously a monk. but drunken master subclass specifically because i think the flavor(not the fact that its about being a drunkard) and abilities both fit him really well. this line in the subclass' flavortext especially fits him: "A drunken master often enjoys playing the fool to bring gladness to the despondent or to demonstrate humility to the arrogant, but when battle is joined, the drunken master can be a maddening, masterful foe."

ZORO: (tiefling fighter. samurai subclass. bounty hunter)

a fighter with the samurai subclass is so very incredibly obvious... but i actually had a lot of fun geeking out while comparing the abilities to what he can do in canon; Fighting Spirit, Rapid Strike, and Strength Before Death especially! tiefling is also pretty on the nose for his demon pirate hunter shtick and asura form, but i thought he'd be really human-passing for a tiefling and theorized about his tail getting cut off at some point or another before joining the strawhats. initially wasnt gonna give him a feat, but i gave sanji a feat so i thought itd be unfair to not give him one as well, so sentinel fits the bill pretty well i think!

NAMI: (tabaxi rogue. arcane trickster subclass. criminal)

cat burglar -> full grown literal humanoid cat. this one is INCREDIBLY self indulgent... i love... cats... theres nothing deeper to this and no other reasoning. i took cat burglar and ran with it. can you tell that i love izutsumi dungeon meshi? rogue for the aforementioned burglar-ing as well, and the arcane trickster subclass for when she picks up climatact! the mage hand will be very useful for her pickpocketing. in the future as she levels up with timeskip, i can totally see her multiclassing into wizard as well! weather wizard!

USOPP: (lightfoot halfling artificer. artillerist subclass. urchin)

I HAD SO MUCH FUN THINKING ABOUT HIS CHARACTER SHEET. halfling's Naturally Stealthy ability lets him hide behind his crewmates since theyre (almost) all bigger than him, so its perfect for hiding behind zoro or sanji all the time. Lucky is also perfect for him, and I think Brave fits pretty well too when he puts on the sogeking mask. artillerist artificer is also very fun! tinkering and making magic items for his crew, and i think Eldritch Canon or Arcane Firearm could both be easily reflavored as kabuto or any of his inventions. for emphasizing his sniper-ness, the spell sniper feat was also necessary. i think hes my favorite of all the concepts. big ears and long nose combo is so cute to me.

SANJI: (half-elf monk. drunken master subclass. guild artisan (cook!))

race was mostly based on vibes i wont lie. squints. and that vinsmoke balogna or whatever too ig. but mostly vibes. along with the idea that i think a dwarf zeff raising him would be really funny and cute. monk is also obvious, and same subclass as luffy for mostly the same reasons. though the flavor fits him much less, i think the abilities still fit him perfectly, and this blurb specifically; "Your martial arts technique mixes combat training with the precision of a dancer." i really wanted to give him a different subclass from luffy, but i dislike all the other monk subclasses a lot and i found none of them fit him as well anyways, so to try and give them SOME differences, i gave him the crusher feat.

CHOPPER: (awakened deer(shifter statblock) cleric. life subclass. hermit)

this ones definitely a mouthful im sorry. awakened deer for obvious reasons, but due to magic instead of devil fruit stuff. when i was struggling with his race, i looked a lot at shifter because of his forms, but it occurred to me that itd be super cool if he could shift between all of the different shifter options instead of being stuck with just one to replicate his rumble balls. something like heavy point/guard point=beasthide, horn point/arm point(?maybe?)=longtooth, walk point/jumping point=swiftstride, and brain point=wildhunt. hed definitely need some kind of nerf though to balance out that homebrew... and cleric for class. duh.

ROBIN: (high elf wizard. order of scribes subclass. criminal)

robin is definitely the one i struggled the most with just because of her class. elf came pretty easily- shes very elegant and i think shed look cute with super long ears- and i landed on high elf instead of wood elf for the int-based abilities. i was really on the fence between sorcerer and wizard for her because i knew shed be a full spellcaster, but i didnt feel that any of the subclasses really fit her. i ended up going with wizard for order of the scribes since it focuses on texts and knowing everything. but also because robin with a flying talking sentient book would be crazy cool. it could also be similar to how she spawns mouths and eyes places to talk to or watch people. my "fuck it, why not. this would be rad. its my house" mindset kicked in with her i will admit. also the One with the Word ability made me cackle out loud when i read it. thats the funniest ability ever. anyways, i cant really think of a way to replicate her powers, but maybe we could just reflavor a bunch of spells to be her limbs or clutch; hold person, maximillian's earthen grasp, or evard's black tentacles. thatd probably work okay, and theres a handful of spells to replicate her ability to spawn eyes or mouths. unrelated, but i imagine nico olvia to be a drow. why? her hair is white. i am a simple man!

[sunnixsunshine]

Im finally done with this omg

More under cut!

All my design thoughts went out the window I really should’ve written them down 😭 but uuuuuh; Nami’s hair was actually inspired by another artist’s redesign I saw. I used psychedelic soul as my main inspo for Brook even tho I havent even met the guy yet to know if it really fits him or not, I was mostly messing around anyway. But hes a goofy guy from what I know so I think this get up/base for his future fits work fine even if psychedelic soul doesnt. Also his shirt in the time skip is supposed to be ripped up into a crop top. Idk. I just think hed like to show off his midriff if he still had one.

NOW FRANK I HAD SO MUCH FUN AND SO MUCH DIFFICULTY WITH BUT THE END RESULT WAS DEFINITELY WORTH IT. I used 2009’s Transformers animated as style reference/inspo because it really does fit the vibes he gives off. I got rid of the bright light green palms in exchange for some subtle floral because 1) I couldn’t figure out how to make it work with the brushes I had downloaded + didnt have time to make my own between work, 2) It made him look too cluttered and drove the focus away from his face. This isnt entirely clear, which Im fine with, but TS Robin and Franky have little matching bits in their designs because i thought itd be cute???? Sue me lmao

And uuuuuuuh. Transfem Sanji/Sanju. Yep. 🏳️‍⚧️ :)

Gonna post more up close ones/individuals later bc I have something else planned with these hehe

This is my new long term project! I’m redesigning One Piece characters to fit within Genshin Impact. I’ll be picking an element and weapon for each character I do as well as writing a little bit about how I’ve decided they fit into Teyvat. I started with Luffy, captain of the Straw Hats crew! I hope you enjoy this piece and the rest of the project!

❖ Monkey D. Luffy

❖ Captain of the Stawhat Pirates

❖ Pyro

❖ Catalyst (melee)

South of Liyue Harbor in the seas between Inazuma and Sumeru there’s a chance you may stumble upon a rather notorious pirate crew: the Stawhats. The crew is led by Captain Monkey D. Luffy. You needn’t worry though, they’re more likely to drag you into an adventure than steal your treasure. Their captain is optimistic and eager to make a new friend. Don’t let his easygoing nature fool you though. Luffy is one of the strongest combatants on the seas. Stories are told of his glorious exploits and fierce battles against other pirates. His firey punch is equal to a certain Fontanian Champion Deulist’s gun. No matter the odds Luffy and his Stawhats always prevail. If you catch him sitting at the bow while all is calm he may tell you about his dreams. Luffy searches the seas for the One Piece, the treasure left behind by Gol D. Rodger. Finding the treasure would make him the next King of the Pirates, the freest man alive.
